“Kennedy’s mouse house and family are cozy and full of energy, her watercolors capturing the excitement and wonder of the holiday…A sweet but purposeful storytime filler.” — School Library Journal

“Children will ache with Posey over her misdeed and understand her motivation, while considering the story. A nice little lesson, told with charm and love by a Grandma Mouse who truly remembers what it is like to be young and eager to find out what is inside a wrapped present. Endearing drawings show the reader the inside of the mousehole, nestled in the roots of a large snow covered tree.” — Children’s Literature
